The one thing that still worries me is the fact
that it would require quite a bit of storage space.
Maybe you can automark pages for credibility based on some subject
like ( is the page a stub?, how old/how much edits/... etc.. )..
before printing, and delete that pages,
This is not about printing. WikiTrust determins the trust level for evey *word*
of every page on the Wiki. To do this, more storage space is required.
Tracking and
assessing authorship is
something many people are interested in, and I think I can speak for a lot of
people in saying that we would really love to have that on the German language
Wikipedia. It would be particularly helpful for print version, the method
currently used by PediaPress is more than doubtful, and is getting ripped apart
on the Verein's mailing list currently.
I can't help you here *scratch head* Anyway the wikipedia is a wiki,
Is designed to make anonymous edits easy so everyone could edit. The
other option, is a different type of pedia, a expert-pedia where only
credited academia experts could add his opinions.
Anonymous edits are not a problem. The problem is that the GFDL requires me to
credit at least the 5 "main" authors, so the question is, how to determine
them.
Similarly, academic citing practices call for the 3 main authors. WikiTrust
would allow us to easily determine who has contributed how much to a given
version of a page. Which would be quite useful.
